  1. ME3 is working fine with my IE7
  2. If I hve a macro that some 30 people could use in their job, how do I (or can i) get the macro to them. I know I have to expoet a mxe file. I have been researching this subject and it looks like each of the people must have at least a licensed version of the Macro Express Player installed to play back the mxe file. Is that going to be $39 each (x 30 = $$$$$$$) or is the player cheaper (better yet - free)? thanks in advance. Bob
  3. I slowed down the test typing and that seemed to help. Hope it remains consistant and that was the problem.
  4. I have been going round and round on this and done a lot of searches for the answer to no avail so, here goes my question: In me3, I have the user do several things to determine the TO, Subj, Attachment description and finally the persons name and street address. First, a general idea of what I am trying to do. I want my people to find specific web sites (of our companies interest) that have peoples name and address or just email address and copy and paste from them. These will be put into variables. I have them go to the web site, and do a ctrl c to copy the email address to a text variable (say t1). I have them do a ctrl c to copy the persons name and street address (say t2). Then dependendt on a check box, value is saved in another variable to be used as the subject (say t3) Then I want ME ask my person what type of letter to send (ie., will you be interested letter, or thank you for being interested letter) and open up the correct lettr and copy it all to the clipboard. Then i want ME to open up outlook email and populate: the email address with the value of the variable T1 the subject lines with the value of the variable T3 The top of the message body with the name and street addr from the variable T2 The body of the report with the correct (will you be interested OR thank you for being intersted letters in the body of the email message that was copied to the clipboard) then I want to send the letter Here is what works consistantly. the email address, the persons name and street address and the Subj line variables are captured correctly. The correct letter is opened in word and copied to the clipboard. Here is what is not working. In short, after the New message comes up in Outlook express, sometimes: Put the email address in the To box, that usually works (t1) However, from there on in, it is inconsistant. Sometimes the subject (t3) is right aftger the t1 email address. Sometime the name and address (t2) is in the CC field etc and not at the beginning of the message body. Sometime the entire body of the letter is copied to the CC line! Sometimes it works perfectly! So, the bottome line. How do i force the t1 email address to go into the "TO:" field? How do I force the t3 subject varaiable to go to the "SUBJ:" field? And finally, how do i force the person name and street address t2 to go to the very beginning of body of the message? I have tried using c1 cordinates but they dont always work. I have tried different delays (2 seconds 3 seconds) to no avail. I am leary of using direct coordiantes in mouse moves due to peoples different screen sizes etc. Most of the people to get this macro will probably be using Outlook or Outlook Express so if I can get it working for these applications, I can worry about the people using yahoo or some other email client later. On a side note, and I have already asked stan for help and he wanted me to send him the code (but I have not had time to do so), in the first part of the macro, i have to have the user highlight the name and address (for example), I issued the command to Clipboard copy (issue the CTRL C) command but that never worked. So, I have had to have the user manually do a ctrl c to make it go to the variable. Stan wanted me to send him the code but I havent had time. But if anyone can help me with the above, I will worry about getting ME to do the Clipboard CTRL C command to work later. What I need right now is the populating of an new email message correctly with the variables I mentioned. Thanks to all for this great forum with you ME garues. Bob
